Question

Sunita is 24 years than her daughter kavita.6 years ago sunita was thrice as old as kavita.Find their present ages

Answer 1

Answer:

sunita = 42

kavita = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of kavita be x

sunita is x + 24

6 years ago

sunita (x +24) -6

kavita x - 6

according to the question

x + 18 = 3(x-6)

x +18= 3x - 18

x - 3x = -18-18

-2x = -36

x= 18

kavita =x=18

sunita = x+ 24= 18 + 24= 42
